It is often said that the next campaign begins the day after the last campaign. That certainly seems to be the case with our county executive. First it was the new website, now it’s his first big gun fundraiser.
Yesterday I received an invitation to an event for Ken on March 22nd at Turf Valley and the A Team of Maryland Dem politocos are headlining the affair. Barbara Mikulski, Ben Cardin, Elijah Cummings and John Sarbanes have all lent their names to “honor” our county executive that night. Presumably they will have passed a budget by then and thus will be able to make a physical appearance as well.
Could this showing of support be construed as encouraging nods from the Dem establishment towards his expected gubernatorial bid in 2014?
No word yet as to whether Peter Franchot or Doug Gansler will drop by to pay their respects as well.
